Martin Pritikin has extensive experience in both the practice of litigation and in teaching others how to litigate. In 2000, Martin joined a large national commercial litigation firm, where he worked on a wide variety of matters.

Within his first few months, Martin participated in a five-week federal trial involving one of the nation’s largest aerospace firms. A year later, he obtained a defense victory in a million dollar contract dispute in a federal court trial.

Among his cases, Martin successfully defended a nonsuit on appeal that was granted after opening statement in favor of his client, a major television network; and an idea theft case in which the jury awarded the plaintiff tens of millions of dollars against the remaining defendants.

Martin obtained a favorable settlement on behalf of a bank in a nationwide federal class action. In a wrongful-termination case against a leading audio component manufacturer, opposing counsel withdrew from the case—and the plaintiff abandoned his claims—after Martin obtained damaging admissions during plaintiff’s deposition. In a habeas corpus victory, Martin helped two Native American brothers avoid sentences of life without the possibility of parole under Alabama’s three-strikes law. Martin obtained a multi-million dollar verdict in a consumer class action.
